In my previous post I mentioned that I was working on some summer time recipes. This is one of them. When the weather is hot outside I love easy and no-cook recipes. This is a nice dish to take on the go, for a picnic or outside party as it does not have any mayonnaise and can sit out for a while.

This recipe came about when I was really wanting salad one night, but was out of lettuce. I did have a bag of grated carrots in the fridge. I started looking through my pantry, putting things into a bowl and Wallah!

Prep Time: 10 Minutes

Cook Time: 0 Minutes

10 oz package of pre-shredded carrots

½ cup cashew nuts

½ cup dried cranberries

5 scallions, chopped

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 tablespoon honey

Place the carrots, nuts, cranberries and scallions into a large bowl.

Dissolve the honey and salt into the vinegar in a smaller bowl. Add the pepper and whisk in the canola oil.
